A jury has dismissed Elon Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI, which he claimed was due to the company's shift from a nonprofit to a for-profit model. The jury took only two hours to reach a unanimous decision, stating that Musk's case lacked merit. This ruling effectively protects OpenAI CEO Sam Altman from Musk's claims.
- ▪Elon Musk filed a $150 billion lawsuit against OpenAI's founders.
- ▪The jury deliberated for just two hours before dismissing the case.
- ▪Musk's lawsuit was based on OpenAI's transition to a for-profit entity.
